Cathedral Players: The Importance of Being Ernest

30 September – 4 October 2025

Cathedral Players are back with their production of Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest.

The play will be presented inside the magnificent Exeter Cathedral with four performances, opening on Tuesday 30 September, with a closing performance on Friday 3 October. Elizabeth Noon and David Gunn-Johnson will be sharing various aspects of the direction and look forward to working together alongside the cast and crew.

“Exeter Cathedral is architecture as theatre.”

“A lovely way to spend the afternoon for the whole family.”

“Really lovely, and unexpectedly ‘wow.’”

“I am in a wheelchair, but I could see everything (pretty much!)”

“Well worth the sore neck from time spent looking heavenwards!”

“An oasis of calm…”

“A beautiful choir sang the mass and all the people were friendly and welcoming.”
